It's never too early to think about the upcoming Christmas concerts!

In order to help organizations with limited budgets for new music, I've made two of my Christmas compositions available for free download. These were originally written for the Delaware Valley Wind Symphony.

The first piece is a set of stylistic variations on Jingle Bells called "Jingle Variations." The second, which may be of more interest here, is a piece for low brass quartet (ideally, two euphoniums and two tubas) and band called "Christmas Tuben." Both pieces are for an advanced high school, college or community band - but are not terribly difficult.

You can find more information on my download page at:

The full scores and all parts are available in PDF format and computer-generated sound renditions are available. If you download, please see the printing instructions (especially for the parts to prevent bad page turns).

Have fun with them!

It looks like the original "Christmas Tuben" parts file was missing the Solo 2 part in bass clef. I have added the solo 2 bass clef part - when the file is re-posted, anyone who has downloaded the parts file will need to re-download the updated parts file.

Also, for those having trouble finding them, the computer-generated sound files are located on the full score download pages - there is a button on the left side marked "listen."

*** UPDATE - the corrected "Christmas Tuben" parts file has been posted. ***

While there probably won't be many Christmas concerts this year, I added a new piece to my free music download page - "Jingle March" - a quick little march that is my interpretation of Jingle Bells as if it was a march written by Sousa or King. It is available in versions for concert band and brass quintet. The percussion parts from the band version can also be used with the quintet version should you care to do so.

As always, it's all free.
